Murray 627804X89B Snow Blower Thrower Parts
The Murray 627804X89B is a gas-powered, two-stage snow thrower known for its reliability and affordability. Manufactured in the late 1990s and early 2000s, this model features a 26-inch clearing width, making it a popular choice for homeowners with medium to large driveways. Its robust design and effective snow-clearing capability helped solidify Murray's reputation in the residential snow removal market.
The Murray 627804X89B was a popular two-stage snow thrower model produced by Murray during the late 1990s and early 2000s. While specific engine details can vary slightly based on the year of manufacture, it typically featured a Briggs & Stratton engine ranging from 5 to 8 horsepower. Some models offered an electric start option for easier starting in cold weather. The 627804X89B is a two-stage snow thrower, meaning it uses an auger to break up the snow and then an impeller to throw it away from the clearing path. The serrated steel auger efficiently chews through snow and ice. Its 26-inch clearing width and 20-inch intake height allow it to handle moderate to heavy snowfall. It can throw snow up to 30-40 feet, depending on the snow conditions. The drive system is wheel-driven, with typically 5-6 forward speeds and 2 reverse speeds, providing good maneuverability. The chute is usually controlled manually, allowing the operator to direct the snow stream. While it doesn't typically feature headlights or heated grips, its durable construction and reliable performance make it ideal for homeowners dealing with average snowfall in suburban environments. It's well-suited for asphalt and concrete driveways, and is capable of tackling packed snow conditions.

Maintenance Tips
- Inspect Auger and Impeller: Regularly check the auger blades and impeller for damage or wear. Replace worn or damaged parts to maintain optimal performance.
- Check and Replace Shear Pins: Shear pins protect the auger and gearbox from damage. Inspect them regularly and replace them immediately if they are broken. Use only the correct shear pins specified for your model.
- Use Fuel Stabilizer: Add fuel stabilizer to the gasoline before storing the snow blower for the off-season to prevent fuel degradation and carburetor issues.
- Adjust Skid Shoes: Adjust the skid shoes to the appropriate height for your driveway surface. This prevents damage to the driveway and ensures proper snow removal.
